Johannesburg is just another city being represented in this T20 tournament.
This franchise is owned by the GMR group, who is not new in this game. They
have owned teams like Delhi Daredevils in the IPL. It is not a necessary thing
to explain but any Businessman would like to expand its horizons. The GMR group
has done so by investing in cricket franchise of South Africa. They will host
their home matches in the ground called Wanderers Stadium.

Joburg Giants Team Details

Home ground: Wanderers

Coach: S Sriram

Marquee South African: Kagiso Rabada

Marquee international: Brendon McCullum (NZ)

The GMR group expects that this team in the T20 Global League 2017 is going to
exceed the expectations. Delhi Daredevils could not make it quite big in the
Indian Premier League but they are definitely one of the most entertaining
teams in all the seasons. The GMR group did not want to take big risks yet
again and hence they decided to pick some really good players for the Joburg
Giants team squad. Investing in Protean players has always been working for
Delhi Daredevils and that's why they tried to do the same with this team as
well. In fact, Rabada, who was the most expensive player to have been bought in
the IPL auction, is picked by this team in the draft ceremony as well. After
all, he reached up to expectations of the team and became the star performer.
Investors would like to see that exact form in him in this tournament as well.

The very hard hitting New Zealand batsman, Brendon McCullum was picked to be a
part of the Joburg Giants team squad. He has been the captain of many of teams
all across the world and his experience is definitely going to come in play.
His batting skills are so much that he can even single handedly lead his team
to the victory. Apart from him, Colin Ingram who is in the best form of his
life, lately was also found worthy by the team.

Apart from the players playing on the field, the people training them are also
effective. No matter how many people say that the players are the only ones who
matter, at the end of the day, the coaches play a very big role. S Sriram is
the current spin consultant with Australian Cricket team and has been a former
Indian player. He is elected as the head coach for Joburg Giants.
